Sacred Symbols+, Episode 487 | ARC Raiders Review Discussion

Sacred Symbols, Episode 386 | Baby, It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over

Last year, Sony launched it's service-based third-person shooter Concord, and it bombed worse than virtually any PlayStation-developed title in history. In fact, it was received so poorly that Sony disappeared it off the market in a matter of two weeks, gave everyone their money back, and snuffed the entire project out of existence while closing the studio that made it. Fast-forward more than a year, though, and Concord has kinda-sorta returned. Tech-savvy enthusiasts have revived the game on...

Defining Duke, Episode 255 | So... That Xbox Showcase Was DIFFERENT...

As was originally reported, Xbox brought out a Partner Preview in November. It was chockful of everything strange like a co-op alien shop simulator or a thuggish rabbit beating up baddies to more traditional first person horror titles. The catch was that every game we saw throughout was a Play Anywhere title, a program that many of Xbox's players still yearn for the platform to leverage more. All in all, the Dukes enjoyed the show, especially given it dropped ahead of the biggest show of the ...

Please welcome friend-of-the-show Jez Corden back to Sacred+. Jez joins me (Colin) from his usual perch at Windows Central and The Xbox Two Podcast for a nearly two hour-long conversation about a variety of topics revolving around the idea of industry accountability. For instance, why haven't Hermen Hulst and Matt Booty been deemed responsible for a staggering number of first party failures and false starts for their respective brands? How come the Xbox c-suite isn't held liable for saying an...

Sacred Symbols, Episode 385 | Old-Fashioned Superstitions I Find Too Hard to Break

PlayStation 5 has officially turned five, giving us much to reflect upon. Has the console lived up to its potential, left folks disappointed, or fallen somewhere in between? We get into that -- alongside new Sony financials that paint an admittedly rosy picture -- before getting into the meat of our show. Two new Sony-aligned games have been revealed, but they've left many potential players puzzled, as neither offering is actually on PlayStation hardware. For starters, NCSoft's long-rumored H...

Defining Duke, Episode 254 | Valve Just Beat Xbox To The Punch...

Xbox's big bet for bringing PCs to the living room has officially been undercut. This week, Valve announced three (!) different pieces of hardware. First, there is the Steam Machine, which serves as the strongest competitor to consoles. While still very much a PC, the Steam Machine packs a lot of punch for a small device and could be a force if priced well. Second, a brand new VR headset in the Steam Frame. Despite Meta having massive first-party support, Valve has decided to challenge a spac...
